Leonard Fournette named SEC Offensive Player of the Week

Fournette

Another week, another accolade for Leonard Fournette.

The sophomore running back has once again earned SEC Offensive Player of the Week for the third straight week.

Apparently, when it comes to Fournette so far this season good things do come in threes, as he reset his career-high in rushing yards for the third straight week with 244 yards rushing and a pair of touchdowns in LSU’s win over Syracuse on Saturday. Fournette also came within six yards of Alley Broussard’s school record for single-game rushing yards.
